The effects of coating thickness on the delamination and fracture behavior of thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems were investigated with cyclic flame thermal fatigue (FTF) and thermal shock (TS) tests. The top and bond coats of the TBCs were prepared by electron beam-physical vapor deposition and low pressure plasma spray methods, respectively, with a thickness ratio of 2:1 in the top and bond coats. The thicknesses of the top coat were 200 and $500{\mu}m$, and those of the bond coat were 100 and $250{\mu}m$. FTF tests were performed until 1140 cycles at a surface temperature of $1100^{\circ}C$ for a dwell time of 5 min. TS tests were also done until more than 50 % delamination or 1140 cycles with a dwell time of 60 min. After the FTF for 1140 cycles, the interface microstructures of each TBC exhibited a sound condition without cracking or delamination. In the TS, the TBCs of 200 and $500{\mu}m$ were fully delaminated (> 50 %) within 171 and 440 cycles, respectively. These results enabled us to control the thickness of TBC systems and to propose an efficient coating in protecting the substrate in cyclic thermal exposure environments.

Fatigue fracture behavior of a hybrid joint part with bolting was evaluated in comparison to the case of static fracture. Hybrid joint part specimens for bending test were made with layers of CFRP and aluminum honeycomb. Characteristic fracture behaviors of those specimens were obviously different under static and cyclic loads. Static bending load showed the shear deformation at the honeycomb core, whereas cyclic bending load caused the delamination between CFRP skin layers and honeycomb core. Experimental results obtained by static and fatigue tests were considered in modifications of design parameters of the hybrid joint.

Aerospace industries are widely using honeycomb sandwich structures that it has high specific strength and stiffness, chemical material resistance and fatigue resistance. But, in repairing process of damaged areas, one of the problems is that delamination can be occurred in the sound areas during and/or after the exposure to the elevated curing temperature in case that the repair process is repeated. Therefore, this study was conducted Flatwise tensile, Drum peel and Long beam flexural strength tests to evaluate the degree of degradation of mechanical properties of the honeycomb sandwich structures by affecting thermal aging. As the results, the decrease of mechanical strength was observed at the specific specimen which is exposed over 50hrs at $127^{\circ}C$.

A newly developed method based on energy is presented to study the damage pattern of FRP material. Basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) is employed to monitor the damage under fatigue loading. In this study, acoustic emission technique (AE) combined with scanning electronic microscope (SEM) technique is employed to monitor the damage evolution of the BFRP specimen in an approximate continuous scanning way. The AE signals are analyzed based on the wavelet transform, and the analyses are confirmed by SEM images. Several damage patterns of BFRP material, such as matrix cracking, delamination, fiber fracture and their combinations, are identified through the experiment. According to the results, the cumulative energy (obtained from wavelet coefficients) of various damage patterns are closely related to the damage evolution of the BFRP specimens during the entire fatigue tests. It has been found that the proposed technique can effectively distinguish different damage patterns of FRP materials and describe the fatigue damage evolution.

탄소섬유강화 복합재료는 금속재료에 비하여 높은 비강성과 비강도 등의 우수한 기계적 성질을 나타내고 있으며, 이러한 이유로 최근 경량화가 요구되는 항공기용 재료와 자동차용 재료 등으로 그 사용이 급격히 증가하여 금속재를 대체하고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 기계구조물에서는 반복하중에 의한 피로 파손이 주로 발생하고 있다. 그러므로 섬유강화 복합재를 사용한 기계구조물의 내구성을 확보하기 위해서는 이에 대한 피로 해석 및 내구성 평가가 필요하다. 따라서 피로 손상 모델을 이용하여 피로 시험으로부터 구한 손상량을 이용하여 피로손상 누적곡선을 획득하고 해석하였다.

Fatigue fracture behavior of a hybrid bolted joint was evaluated in comparison to the case of static fracture. Two kinds of specimens were fabricated for the mechanical tests; a hybrid bolted joint specimen for the shear test and a hybrid joint part specimen applied in the real tilting car body for the bending test. Characteristic fracture behaviors of those specimens under cyclic toads were obviously different from the case under static loads. For the hybrid bolted joint specimen, static shear loading caused the fracture of the bolt body itself in a pure shear mode, whereas cyclic shear loading brought about the fracture at the site of local tensile stress concentration. For the hybrid joint part specimen, static bend loading caused the shear deformation and fracture in the honeycomb core region, while cyclic bend loading did the delamination along the interface between composite skin and honeycomb core layers as well as the fracture of welded joint part. Experimental results obtained by static and fatigue tests were reflected in modifications of design parameters of the hybrid joint structure in the real tilting car body.

복합재료-금속 접착접합부가 사용 중 반복 하중을 받을 때 발생하는 피로 손상도를 음향초음파(acousto-ultrasonics; AU)법과 음향방출(acoustic emission; AE)법을 이용하여 평가하였다. 피로시험에는 단일겹치기(single-lap) 시험편을 사용하였으며, AU법을 통해 취득한 신호로부터 음향초음파변수(acousto-ultrasonic parameters; AUP)와 피로손상과의 상관관계 곡선을 얻고, AE법에서는 누적 AE events를 통한 피로손상과의 상관관계 곡선을 얻어, AU법과 AE법의 결과를 비교하였다. 이 곡선들은 피로손상에 의한 고분자기지 복합재료의 강성 저하$(E/E_0)$를 나타내는 곡선과 매우 유사하며, 이를 바탕으로 피로 손상도의 예측과 잔여 수명의 예측이 가능하다. 또한 피로 하중의 초기 단계와 피로손상의 누적에 의해 급격한 변화가 나타나는 단계의 파형 주파수 성분을 비교하여, 피로 파괴의 마지막 단계에서 나타나는 신호 중에는 본격적인 피로손상에 의해 발생하는 AE 신호 성분이 포함되어 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Energy harvesting technology, which scavenges electric power from ambient, otherwise wasted, energy sources, has been explored to develop self-powered wireless sensors and possibly eliminate the battery replacement cost for wireless sensors. Among ambient energy sources, vibration energy can be converted into electric power through a piezoelectric energy harvester. For the last decade, although tremendous advances have been made in design methodology to maximize harvestable electric power under a given vibration condition, the research in reliability assessment to ensure durability has been stagnant due to the complicated nature of the multiple failure modes of a piezoelectric energy harvester, such as the interfacial delamination, fatigue failure, and dynamic fracture. Therefore, this study presents the first-ever system reliability analysis for multiple failure modes of a piezoelectric energy harvester using the Generalized Complementary Intersection Method (GCIM), while accounts for the energy conversion performance. The GCIM enables to decompose the probabilities of high-order joint failure events into probabilities of complementary intersection events. The electromechanically-coupled analytical model is implemented based on the Kirchhoff plate theory to analyze its output performances of a piezoelectric energy harvester. Since a durable as well as efficient design of a piezoelectric energy harvester is significantly important in sustainably utilizing self-powered electronics, we believe that technical development on system reliability analysis will have an immediate and major impact on piezoelectric energy harvesting technology.

The mechanical strengths of buried lamellar tears located near the weld toe in the welded tee joints were evaluated in terms of the loss of load carrying capacity as a function of tear area. In static loading, the load carrying capacity was significantly reduced when tear intercepted over 10% of the cross-sectional area of the welded joints. However, the welded joints containing buried tears still failed at stresses over the yield strength of the base metal in the through-thickness direction in spite of the presence of tears up to 20-25% of the area. Fatigue strength of welded joints containing tears markedly reduced with increasing tear areas. Lehigh lamellar tearing test used in this study to produce speicmens was described in detail. The load carrying cpapacity in static loading was influenced by the reduction of supporting area whereas that in fatigue loading was influenced by the stress-concentration effects of lamellar tears and the reduction of supporting area. In bend tests, the pre-existing lamellar tears always grew up toward the weld toe. However, in fatigue loading, cracks grew up and down simultaneously form both the weld toe and the top of lamellar tears because of stress concentration. In fatigue loading, delaminations and decohesion of inclusion/matrix interface generated in multipass welds provided crack propagation paths and enhanced crack propagation because the tips of delaminations and deconhesios acted as stress raisers.

X-Ray와 초음파 C-Scan 장비를 이용하여 A/2024-T3 판재의 균열과 CFRP 라미네이트 박리 거동을 조사하여 피로균열 지연 거동과 지연기구(mechanism)를 연구하였다. A/2024-T3 시험편에 비해서 CPAL 시험편은 피로균열전파속도가 현저하게 지연되었으며, 지연 정도는 $0^{\circ}$/$90^{\circ}$ CPAL이 $\pm$$45^{\circ}$ CPAL 시험편보다 크고, 응력비 R=0.2에서 응력비 R=0.5보다 크게 나타났다. CPAL 시험편의 피로균열 지연 효과는 균열후방의 박리 및 비박리 CFRP 라미네이트가 A/2024-T3 판재의 균열열림(COD)을 감소시키는 균열브리징미케니즘(crack bridging medhanism) 때문에 발생함을 확인하였다.
